A nice clearly used P38 sofshell holster marked ros 1944 indicating production by E. G. Leuner, Bautzen. The holster is in used condition as can be seen on the pictures. There are many mint holster available, but only few used condition soft shell P38 holsters!

The gasmask is nicely painted in the typical three-tone Normandy camouflage. The container still retains up to 85% of its original camouflage paint and retains its original straps, mask and accessories. Inside the gasmask is named to Obergefreiter Heinz Metzler with the Feldpost number 34061 which corresponds to the following units belonging to the 348. Infanterie-Division which was destroyed in the Normandy battles!

The lid compartment still retains the spare lenses and the contamination test swabs. Underneath the gasmask is the cleaning cloth and spring but also a small envelope with Metzler name on it containing a piece of raw cotton, probably to polish the lenses. A real Normandy veteran. The gasmask is a stunning one looker in very good condition which would be very hard to upgrade!

A very nice M42 messkit marked MN43. Nice unusual construction where a steel M31 type handle is spotwelded to a M42 type body. Nice messkit in very good unissued condition!

A nice original set of private purchase M36 type shoulder boards or Schulterklappen for a Oberfeldwebel in Panzergrenadier Regiment 33. This unit fought in several well known battles on the eastern front such as Orel, Kursk, Kowel and Kurland. The shoulder boards are in good condition though 1 has a moth hole on top. A very attractive pair!

A great original Waffen-SS belt buckle together with the belt it was found with in Maryland, United States. The belt buckle is nicely marked RZM 155/43 ᛋᛋ indicating production by Assmann & Söhne, Lüdenscheid. The buckle is nicely made and phosphate finished. Hard to find phosphate finished Waffen-SS belt buckle with its original belt, nice for a mannequin!

A very nice and uncommon breadbag marked 0/0750/3572 with rayon straps in stead of leather/canvas. A very nice variation for the specialized equipment collector in mint condition!

A rare original German field hospital flag. These flags where used to mark field hospitals but where also used on vehicles and positions.

A very nice original three-tone or Normandy camouflage gasmask canister. The canister is nicely named to Obergefreiter Villwock. The canister retains its original camouflage paint up to 75% and is in very nice vibrant condition. The canister still retains the original strap, spare lenses, spring but no mask. It was found this way in Rijen, the Netherlands. Hard to upgrade!

A very nice 822/37 Waffen-SS belt buckle in Aluminum. The buckle is nicely maker marked and is in very good condition. The silver wash still retains fully to the front of the buckle which is only scarcely seen. A very hard to upgrade buckle in very good, near unissued condition!

A nice set of matching tunic buttons dated 1940 and a set of scarce glass buttons used on Waffen-SS tunics and other garments. The set comes complete with a set of tunic belt support strap hooks and a spool of period issue thread. A complete set of tunic hardware that is hard to come by. I only have one set of these.

A huge flag measuring 2,8 x 1,2 meters in size. The flag was most probably brought back by a American soldier. These flags where one of the most popular bring backs in the time! The flag is in used condition with some small holes. The flag has a swastika sewn to both sides. The biggest flag I’ve ever seen!

A nice late war belt set with a unmarked Overhoff & Cie buckle. A nice matching condition belt and buckle, nice for a combat display!

A very nice original mapcase with its original contents. The front of the mapcase has two battle damages where shell fragments pierced through the outer and inner leather portions. The contents of the mapcase have been replaced wartime and the mapcase remained in use until the end. The mapcase comes with a number of contents such as maps, pencils and a compass. A item with character, as found!

A textbook pre war P08 Luger holster in very good unissued condition. This is the nicest Luger holster I’ve seen so far. Nicely marked R. EHRHARDT, POESSNECK 1939.  The holster is complete with all loops, straps and buckle. The leather is supple and not dry. Hard to upgrade this pre-war piece!

A very nice and matching pair of K98 ammunition pouches. The pouches are complete with all straps, dividers and markings. The leather is in good supple condition. The pair is nicely maker marked 0/1032/0001. Nice to find a matching pair which is hard to find!

A very nice original Sanitäter pouch marked Karl Barth Waldbröl 1939. The pouch is in very good, unissued condition with the original label in the lid. Very hard to upgrade!

A original German issued pullover in good condition. These sweaters where a standard issue piece just like the shirts and other uniforms. It is in very good condition and has a few small holes and a stain on the front. Most of these where used up postwar and finding a original one nowadays is very hard to find in good condition.

This sweater was wrapped around a German pistol after the war that was found a few years ago on a attic in the Netherlands. It was then handed into the police which destroyed the gun but the sweater was spared.

A nice matching M42 messkit with 90% of its original paint. Nicely marked ohw 4 indicating production by Otto Honsel Werke in 1944.

A very nice oak zeltbahn in very good condition. Missing some buttons, some minor repairs that would be expected of the age! Other then that a nice Waffen-SS Zeltbahn in good used condition!
